    Question

    When having sex if the vagina becomes irritated and the next day you have a discharge and the discharge makes your vagina itchy but there's no odor, what could that be?

    Answer

    It is important to avoid the irritation - use condoms with a water-based lubricant (like KY jelly) so that there is no friction. Taking a bath without any bubbles might help. If not, see your doctor or a clinic.
